Terrariums and Romance

So. Busy. Gaaaaackcan'tbreathe.

But nevertheless, I wanted to post pictures of the terrarium I made recently for my friend's bridal shower.

I'd wanted to find some little romantic figurines, maybe a little house. But all I could find locally (I waited too long to order anything) was a guy drinking beer, a dinosaur, and some crystals and fool's gold. Also, green glitter, because I figured that probably wouldn't kill moss and glitter is awesome. So, you know. Totally romantic.

Moss terrariums are blissfully easy, and pretty hard to kill even if you're bad at plants like I am. Small rocks in the bottom, dirt on top of that, scrape a chunk of moss off the tree or sidewalk outside, and plop it on in. The "tree" is some sort of...plant...or something...that I found at a garden store and that seemed terrarium-friendly. Anyway, then you just fill it fulla fun stuff and mist the sucker relatively frequently (or less often if it has a lid.) Wahoo!
